Folding Forum

Hi Folks.

I read recently that to increase your PPD it was recommended to add the hex password from the F@Home link. I did that and the PPD increased by a factor of 4 but my 15million plus points zeroed out!
Are they gone forever?? It took me many many months to accumulate.

Thanks for your help.

Points are accumulated in pseudo accounts indexed by two values, the user name and the passkey. Change either one of them and you get a new "account"

Dpending on which site you're searching, accounts may or may not be combined when they're displayed. On the official stats site, you can specify both and isolate each individual account. our points are still there, presumably listed under "kevster001" and " " or whatever you were using at the time.

Welcome to Folding@Home!

I admit I could not find any points on EOC for kevster001. How sure are you that you are folding as kevster001?

@ Me? Totally unsure. Just a SWAG.

BTW, EOC doesn't list small accounts and as I said above, I didn't search the official stats.

LOL, no I've been folding under KIsenor - the kevster001 is just for the forum username. The list shows I still have 15 mill and change but my machine shows at present 78,935.

The right name does help us help.

I find 15,168,897 Points at EOC, which does not care about passkeys.
